The SpyderCHECKR Colour Chart and Calibration Tool for Digital Cameras from Datacolor is a colour target for use with digital cameras. It features 48 swatches, including various shades of grey and skin tones. The chart opens to 31cm x 23cm and when folded closed is 17cm x 23cm. You can use the swatches to perform a custom white balance on your camera, ensuring that your camera settings correctly match the lighting conditions in which you are shooting.
